Biospringer by Lesaffre, a global player in the food fermentation space, has agreed to acquire selected intellectual property (IP) and technology of bacteria fermentation specialist PTX Food.

Lesaffre has appointed Edouard Gestat as Marketing Director of Baking with Lesaffre, drawing on 24 years in food ingredients and 15 years within the Lesaffre group.

Baking Europe spent two days at the company's campus, hosted by Zoé Henneguier and the Lesaffre team, alongside Leah Smith. What we found was more than just a facility tour, it was a genuine look at how a family business approaches innovation.
